Northbrook, IL: September 2021 – The North Suburban YMCA has reopened its Community Art Gallery with a show of dramatic watercolor paintings by Y art teacher Fran Vail, and art students Karen Bonner and Tegwen Conzemius.

“There are a lot of art students who have been taking the watercolor class from Fran Vail for several years. It’s a fun way to meet new people, paint in a relaxed atmosphere, and learn something new,” said Cathie Winnie, the NSYMCA’s Visual Arts Director.
